Hi,
I am wondering what translation would you prefer for "retire" when the term refers to retiring carbon credits.
In Polish, there are several ways of translating it, the most popular being: anuluj, wykorzystaj, umórz. The term will be used mostly in texts which should be easy to understand for the general public. I am leaning towards "wykorzystaj" as it describes what actually happens with the carbon credit after retirement: it's gone and can never be reused.
I would be grateful for any advice :)
Thanks!
Ewa

Usunięcie EUA
Uprawnienia EUA znajdujące się na rachunku rejestrowym można anulować z obiegu nie tylko przez umorzenie, ale również przez usunięcie.
Dobrowolne usunięcie uprawnień EUA zgodnie z Rozporządzeniem Komisji UE nr 2216/2004 z dnia 21 grudnia 2004 r., art. 62 (Dobrowolne anulowanie uprawnień i jednostek Kioto) ostatecznie wycofuje uprawnienia do emisji z unijnego systemu handlu uprawnieniami do emisji tak, że nie są one już dostępne dla innych uczestników systemu UE, zmniejszając tym samym emisję CO2 w UE.

Reference:
“Retiring” a carbon credit
Within a few minutes of your purchase, we will send you a certificate verifying your purchase and detailing how much greenhouse gas you have destroyed. Additionally, we periodically group purchases and make “retirements” of credits. “Retiring” a carbon credit means that when it is purchased it is taken off the market forever—never to be traded or swapped again. This way, only the purchaser of the carbon credit can ever claim to have reduced emissions. They cannot, for example, claim they’ve reduced emissions and then re-sell the credit. On a regular basis we retire credits for clients and/or individual customers. Each credit has its own serial number, and can be tracked on a variety of different registries where projects, and all of their individual credits are listed publicly. You will be able to see notes on each retirement in each registry around the world.
